Abstract (en)

Disclosed are a control device and a sanitary equipment. The control device comprises: a back plate and an outer plate, the outer plate is provided with a deformation control area, a circuit board is arranged between the outer plate and the back plate, a controller and a pressure sensor in communication connection with the controller are arranged on the circuit board, and the pressure sensor is arranged behind the deformation control area. The pressure sensor is arranged in the deformation control area, so that the pressure sensor detects deformation of the deformation control area, thus realizing control by pressing. Since the deformation control area is arranged on the outer plate, etching a key on other parts of the sanitary equipment may be avoided, and damage to other parts may be avoided, thus saving costs. The pressure-sensitive key is waterproof and dustproof, and has a long service life.
